Diet Plans For An Overweight Teenager?

I am 13 and i am overweight almost 200 pounds. Yeah bad right? I have been trying to lose weight for years. I might be moving soon and it is bad enough being the new girl;but the new fat girl is way worse. I am looking for a diet plan that would be easy for a teenage girl to stick to. Websites are amazing but just tips are good too. If you are in my situation you can understand how hard sticking to a diet is.

Thank You[=

Okay, go onto google, and search for “BMR CALCULATOR” Exactly as written. Your BMR is the amount of calories your body requires to live every day.

So, take that number, and subtract 600 from it. What do you have? If it’s less than 1000 then you should contact me. I will explain what to do then.

So, that number, -mine is 1300- is the amount of calories you should be eating per day. (PER DAY) You can find the calorie count on the nutrition facts of your food label.

You should eat 300 calories for breakfast lunch and dinner. So, with those three meals, you will have eaten 900 calories.
After that, you should have three 150 calorie snacks.

Make sure you eat lots of fiber. Between 20 and 50 grams per day.

Drink 2 glasses of water PER meal, before each meal. 1 glass per snack. It is critical that you stay hydrated. It’s the only way your body will allow you to lose weight.

Now, you should exercise at least 60 minutes per day. Enough to burn 400 calories, so your net calorie intake will be -1000.

There are 3500 calories in a pound, and it is only safe for your body to lose 2 pounds per week. You will be burning 7000 calories per week, or, in other words, losing 2 pounds per week.

Work hard and keep your eye on the prize.

Also, you can indulge. Every third day, you can eat one item of indulgence. A small bowl of ice cream or a candy bar, OR a cookie, etc.

Need help? Support? Advice? I was 200 pounds at age 12, and I lost 35 pounds all by my self, with hardly ANY exercise.

You can do it too! Just send me a message through my Y!A profile. 🙂

All the best to you!

Honestly, the best diet you could ever be on is-
1) Eat lots of healthy fruits and veggies every day (i’m serious okay…)
2) Exercise at your own pace, like, start out with 2 times a week then go 3, then 4, and so on.
3)drink LOTS of water! (at least 6 glasses a day.) its good for you!
4) Basically, do it the old-fashioned way! It will keep you healthy and still be on a diet. (don’t consider it as a diet!:)) Believe in yourself!
